The structured aspect is really what is doing it for me. It is keeping me away from the occasional nibble off of something bad for me which inhibited my weight loss in the past.

I know walnuts and ham are not magical but all the menu items are the closest they can be to non processed foods. They are straight forward and fresh ingredients and all the carbs are non-bread carbs. Natural carbs from fruits and veggies.

I just feel a lot healthier on the diet and have more energy. I've never ever lost 8.4 lbs in a month without starving myself and exercizing to death. In my opinion, that is way unhealthier and setting up 4 a rebound effect than this diet.

I am going on vacation with my boyfriend and his family is in town this week for graduation so i haven't been of the diet for 3 days now. I cant wait to get back on but meanwhile i want to make sure i dont put any weight back on.

I have been exercising everyday and looked for low carb, low sugar items when grocery shopping. I turned down a lot of the normal foods i buy and turned out with some delicious replacements.

Last night for dinner we ate chicken wraps with grilled garlic chicken, honey mustard, onion, celery, lettus, and tomato. They were about half the size of normal wraps because i didnt want to overeat but still very delicious. The rest of the day i had some of the items off the menu and some other healthy snacks. I made sure i didnt eat until hungry and stopped as soon as i wasnt hungry anymore. I havent gained an ounce since my diet ended 3 days ago and am not suprised i havent lost any weight.

I find that the diet proves to show an excelerated weight loss with its menu items as opposed to just eating healthy. I dont really know what calorie shifting is exactly, but its been working for me any many others that have more weight to lose have been getting even better results.
